2nd Place.......

The last few weeks have been very challenging. In addition to the tremendous pressures of every day teaching, I started a skills club after school. We had two weeks to complete a project for the state fair. I stayed until 5 pm everyday with the members of the club and they worked really hard on the project. The day of the judging, my co-sponsor took the students and the project to the Perry Fair. The students were excited and honestly I was happy for them, but not too hopeful. To everyone's suprise, we won!!!! Second place in the state is not bad for our first entry. The students were so proud of their work and I was proud to be a part of it all.
